Zhuang Yun's words made Yu Lan and Zhou Poxu's anxious hearts fall back into their stomachs, and Jiang Shu and others also breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Yuan took off the jade pendant and put it on the table and said, "You guys have a good eye. Okay, I'll use this jade pendant as a lucky charm. What will you take?"
"How about this dagger?" Zhou Boxu took off the dagger from his waist and placed it on the table.
His dagger cuts iron like clay and is a rare weapon.
Yu Yuan's eyes gleamed as he looked at it: "Then it's settled that we won't go back on our word."
Although his martial arts skills were mediocre and his research on weapons was not deep, he knew Zhou Boxu's dagger.
Even if you don’t have to, it’s great to bluff people to show off your face. Who doesn’t love it, baby?
While several people were talking, the servants had already arranged the venue.
The two teams stood apart. Yu Yuan threw the ball into the air. When it fell back to mid-air, the two teams began to scramble.
Zhou Boxu had long legs and a quick body. He grabbed the ball with a side kick in the air and passed it to Zhuang Yun.
Zhuang Yun was young and had poor skills, so he was a little panicked, fearing that he might not play well and lose.
"Don't be afraid, your uncle and I are here." Zhou Boxu noticed his nervousness and comforted him warmly.
"Yun'er, just kick." Yu Zheng also encouraged him from behind.
With the confidence of the two of them, Zhuang Yun put aside his worries and let his hands and feet play freely.
Jiang Shu and Yu Lan sat in the pavilion in the middle of the lake and watched. Seeing that everyone was having fun and having fun, they were also happy.
"Master Zhou likes Yun'er very much, and Yun'er also likes Master Zhou." Jiang Shu refilled Yu Lan's hot tea.
Yu Lan curled her lips and smiled: "Well, I feel relieved that they can get along well with each other."
For Yu Lan, Zhou Boxu is as important as Zhuang Yun and cannot be let go. Seeing that they were getting along harmoniously made her feel at ease.
"Yijun is also very good. She can do everything. I see her playing is no worse than Yu Shizi." Jiang Shu looked envious and appreciative.
"Why, isn't A Zheng playing well?" Yu Lan peeled an orange and smiled narrowly.
Jiang Shu's face turned slightly red when he was teased, and he joked: "I see Master Zhou playing the best football, didn't Sister?"
"Okay, I'm going to tell A Zheng later whether you look at others or not at him."
"Well, each other..."
The two were joking in the pavilion, watching several people laughing and chasing each other in the open space in the distance.
The sun falls gently on the lake, and sometimes a breeze blows gently, creating sparkling waves.
Red and white koi carps swim lazily in the water, basking in the sun and looking for food.
"It's such a good day like this." Jiang Shu sighed, stroking his still-not-yet-obvious belly.
Having a family, a husband, children, and good friends...it is best to live a stable and happy life like this.
Yu Lan looked at Jiang Shu's lower abdomen and said, "My children are wrapped around my knees and their heads are wet with foam. It will be better in the future."
"Well, we are all the same."
This was the best blessing. The two looked at each other, smiled and ate the oranges.
After kicking for about half an hour, Yu Zheng and others returned to the Huxin Pavilion.
"Who won?" Yu Lan asked with a smile.
"We won." Zhuang Yun looked excited, picked up the jade pendant on the table and said proudly: "Uncle Yuan, this is mine."
Yu Yuan's face dropped, and he said unconvinced: "My teammates are not good, they are holding me back, otherwise I will definitely win."
Sun Yijun pinched Yu Yuan's ears and asked with a hum, "Who are you saying is not good? Who is holding whom back?"
Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Yu Yuan begged for mercy: "I, I, I, I can't do it, I'm holding you back."
"Pfft--" Jiang Shu and the others were amused, smiling as they watched them flirt.
"Hmph! You know what's going on." Sun Yijun let go of his hand with satisfaction.
Yu Yuan rubbed his ears and said with a look of resentment: "Brother Huang Zheng, you just watch her bullying me and don't care."
"Why does she bully you?" Yu Zhengdan asked.
Yu Yuan choked, knowing that he couldn't answer.
"Hmph!" Yu Yuan turned his head away proudly, and angrily ate the fruit.
After resting enough, Yu Yuan couldn't sit still anymore and asked his servants to bring him a chessboard, hoping to find another way to wash away his shame.
But after a round of fighting, he defeated Zhuang Yun alone.
Jiang Ning, who narrowly won, raised his eyebrows and felt a little proud.
Every time he played chess with Yu Zheng, he studied seriously and made rapid progress.
"This... I didn't perform well today. Let's switch to the kettle." Yu Yuan was a little embarrassed. He picked up the tea and drank it, sticking out his tongue when it was burned.
"Hahaha..." Sun Yijun laughed.
Yu Yuan said angrily: "You did it on purpose."
"Who told you to drink it directly?" Sun Yijun laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.
Seeing these two happy enemies bickering, Jiang Shu and the others found it more interesting than listening to a play.
While they were chatting and laughing, a servant came to report: "Your Majesty, Princess, the banquet is ready."
The group went to the Flower Hall to have lunch.
Zhuang Yun spent a lot of energy playing Cuju in the morning, and he ate delicious food at lunch. Yu Lan was very pleased to see it.
This is what boys should do, play well and eat well, so that they can grow strong and strong.
After the meal, the group returned to the back garden.
It is not advisable to do strenuous activities when you are full. Standing still and throwing pots is just right.
Touhu, a game that requires little effort, can be played without any threshold, and is relatively elegant, is very popular among Dazhao people, and almost everyone can play it.
"Mother, it's your turn." Zhuang Yun diligently took the arrow and handed it to Yu Lan.
Yu Lan took it and stood still, staring at the mouth of the pot in front of him, carefully aiming to throw.
Zhou Boxu watched for a moment, and when Yu Lan raised a bright smile, he also raised the corners of his lips.
"Mom is so amazing." Zhuang Yun clapped his hands in reverence.
Yu Lan touched his head and said, "Yun'er will be better than mother if she practices a few more times."
"Okay." Zhuang Yun took the arrow and practiced with great interest, while Yu Yuan was at the side giving him decent guidance.
If nothing else is good, he is very good at this game.
Seeing someone playing with Zhuang Yun, Yu Lan and Zhou Boxu looked at each other and walked toward Mei Lin in tacit understanding.
"Come on, come on, let's see uncle show you his skills." Yu Yuan was so itchy that he took an arrow and showed it to Zhuang Yun.
Zhuang Yun glanced around and saw Zhou Boxu and Yu Lan entering the Meilin.
Noticing Zhuang Yun's gaze, Yu Zheng walked slowly to him.
"Yun'er also wants to join them?"
Zhuang Yun shook his head, frowned slightly and asked with confusion: "Uncle, does Uncle Zhou like my mother very much?"
"Yes." Yu Zheng nodded and said solemnly, "No one in the world loves your mother more than him."
As a man, Yu Zheng understands what it means to be single for ten years.
That is a persistent love that is determined by one person and cannot be changed by her.
Although his feelings for Jiang Shu were not deep enough to let him go before, no one has been able to fall into his heart over the years. It wasn't until he learned about Jiang Shu and Li that the empty corner of his heart found an answer.
Some people are destined to meet again even if they have missed each other.
"I love my mother very much too." Zhuang Yun said firmly.
Yu Zheng nodded and said slowly: "I know, but your love is different from Uncle Zhou's love, and they are irreplaceable."
"And you will grow up, establish a career, and have a family. If no one is with you by then, your mother will be like your grandmother, who can only spend the rest of her life in solitude."
Thinking of Mrs. Zhuang, Zhuang Yun frowned: "I don't want my mother to be like my grandmother."
